This is an action adventure game based on the animated movie Shrek Forever After. Players assume the role of Shrek and his friends as they make their way through an alternate version of the kingdom of "Far Far Away." Players can solve puzzles, explore castles and forests, and battle an assortment of fantastical enemies (e.g., enchanted trees, sword-wielding knights, witches, gun-wielding pirates). Punches, kicks, belly flops, and sword slashes are used to defeat enemies; power-ups and special skills are employed to stun enemies in the melee-style combat. Dialogue includes references to a "Magnus Rumpus," strange odors (a bean joke), and the line "Er, if it's yesterday's underwear, don't sniff 'em?" One song contains the word "damn" in the lyrics (e.g., "I don't give a damn about my reputation . . .").
